I suspect the answer to your question will be "keep sanding"?

Why not take some superglue and glue the sandpaper to a block of wood? Much easier to hold onto and after you are done sanding this card the sandpaper will probably be done for anyway.

 

[Wurger]

What about the area?

 

[B-17engineer]

I've been focusing here , because there is no issues. Just about finished. Can we use this area, please?

 

[Wurger]

Yes if there is enough of room for two circles.

 

[B-17engineer]

 

[Wurger]

Great....

 

[B-17engineer]

Oh and I didn't sand it.... I'll take a pic of the tool I used.

Memory card on camera is full, so I'm deleting some pics

 

[Wurger]

What tool? I can see the card only.????????

 

[B-17engineer]

I know, I know. I used a tool my dad gave me and said it may be easier I'm using paint to show how to use it.

 

[Wurger]

Ok.

 

[B-17engineer]

Pic 1: The tool I used to get the paint off.

Pic 2: The tool, I don't know what it's called but, you scrape from one side to the other and it lifts plastic sheet off in layers and then once it gets through that, it takes the words off.

 

[Wurger]

It's a kind of a scraper or a chisel. If it helps, go for it. Then sand both sides to make the surfaces smooth.

 

[B-17engineer]

Wait you mean I'm not done

 

[Wurger]

And did you do that ?

 

[B-17engineer]

Well I thought we were using just the top halves for the circles.

 

[Wurger]

But we are just talking about the top. Is that ready?

 

[B-17engineer]

Oh yea, the top halves of both sides are ready.! Sorry

 

[Wurger]

OK. Going farther....

 

[B-17engineer]

Sure I'll go do that.

 

[B-17engineer]

it's 11/16th of an inch across

Divide that it is 5.5/16th of an inch so I set my compass to that.
